Why Study Iconoclasm
In the Greek churches between c.725 and 842 AD there was a major dispute over the role of icons in worship -- and those who opposed the use of icons were known as the 'iconoclasts' [literally: 'icon breakers']. Dr Mary Cunningham discusses this period, its importance for an understanding of Orthodoxy and the larger question of the role of images in religion.
